Hello,

If I am going to store any file in a CD I just drag it to CD
drive,
and click on the bubble opened and click on the Write these files on
the context menu. It workd fine. But the same operation doesn't work
for DVD's. Why? I have to use A program from Roxio or something else
for the same thing. What am I missing?

You aren't missing anything. XP does not have a built-in ability to burn
DVD's. You need to use a third-party program such as Roxio or Nero.
Here is a free burning program, too:
